Ah, an orderly file structure. Microsoft’s structure seems designed to be unintelligible (to me).

For those thinking of taking the Linux+ certification test - pay attention.

Grin, when it comes to *nix religious wars I tend to favor:

/opt over /usr/local...

KDE over Gnome, though I'm experimenting with Xfce on a new-to-me distro and I like it...

When it comes to the init vs systemd debate I actually don't care, as long as the beast boots...

And contrary to many Linux purists, I'll use proprietary software and drivers if I need to.

Thanks. Very good info. I am sure happy with Linux and really like Linux Mint Cinnamon. I wanted to make a Python program stand-a-lone using Win10. All I can say is that it was painful with all the popups and reminders to do this or that when I just wanted to one simple task.

Good Hunting... from Varmint Al

I'm not sure how this is going to display, but the following should be a tree of the directory structure. I also added a few directories they didn't mention.
/
├── bin
├── boot
├── dev
│   └── shm
├── etc
│   └── init.d
├── home
│   ├── user1
│   └── user2
├── lib
├── opt
├── proc
├── root
├── sbin
├── sys
├── tmp
├── usr
│   ├── bin
│   ├── lib
│   ├── local
│   │   ├── bin

└── var
    ├── log
    ├── spool
    │   ├── cron
